[Seraphine's POV]No matter how loudly I screamed, as if this large room would collapse due to the vibrations of my voice, Omega in the white gown remained unmoved. As if she were a statue, completely unfazed by my burning anger.There was suspicion and apprehension because Omega didn't move at all. I didn't know if she was alive or not, or if she was a puppet. Eventually, I forced myself to walk toward her, even though my heart told me not to."I-it can't be ...."And what I found when I stood in front of Omega was a face I recognized all too well.How could I not? We had just met and talked for a long time, recently.Indeed, she was Riana. The Omega who should have died so brutally, the Omega whose body should have decayed from being stabbed and battered multiple times.But now, Riana was alive again. She sat on that stone table, dressed in a clean white gown. There was no longer a gaping hole in her chest that had caused her death. And now she was looking at me, smiling, her lips d
[Seraphine's POV]"How ... How can I defeat power as immense as this?" I am at a loss for words for the first time.Even without looking into the future, I already know the answer. It will be incredibly difficult to defeat Riana in her perfect condition, even with all my strength.'Not with the baby still in my womb. If I force myself to fight, both of us will die!' I scream inwardly."Miss Seraphine!"From up here, as I try to brainstorm for a way to find a loophole to defeat Riana, suddenly my ears are disturbed by a faint voice from below.Jesse. I lower my head to gaze at the garden area, and there he is.‘Stupid! He shouldn't have come here!' I scream inwardly, frustrated by his unwanted arrival."What is actually happening, Miss!? Who is that terrifying creature!?" Jesse shouts with all his might, trying to communicate with me amidst Riana's relentless attacks.I immediately activate my telepathic power to communicate from a distance. I won't let Riana know about Jesse's existen
[Seraphine's POV]Jesse ran so fast, as if the wind had lightened his body. I only needed to watch him for a few minutes to ensure he had completely vanished from this place.*Boom! Boom! Boom!**Kaboom! Kaboom!*And the explosions and trembling ground served as a reminder alarm for me to return to the real world. To face the dreadful monster disguised as an innocent omega named Riana."Sigh ... How many times do I have to face something like this? The first time, when I arrived in Silverbrook Haven village. Then, the four Alphas, and also the mysterious Alpha with wings, Geovanni, Cassian's personal servant, was the same. And now Riana? Oh my. How much longer do I have to risk my life by fighting alongside these mad people?"Consider my sanity starting to break now, leading to me growing weary of fighting. Considering that this is the fifth time I'm fighting someone who's trying to target and harm me.*Boom! Boom! Boom!**Crack! Crackle!**Boom! Boom! Boom!*But this one, her dreadfu
[Seraphine's Viewpoint]As long as I'm here, not only is my pregnancy weakening me, but I'm also an Omega whose abilities are more valuable for information gathering than defense."I don't know how to defeat her," I muttered to myself. I looked at Riana, flying like an ominous angel in the sky, ready to kill me at any moment.'Cassian... Is he still far away? How much longer do I have to bide my time until he gets here? And wait. What if he doesn't come? Cassian might get mad at me for hypnotizing him, and he might not want to help me.Panic and despair like I'd never felt before cluttered my mind. I tried to see the future without touching her, but my efforts proved futile.Like a glass on a table shaken by an earthquake, Riana's recent words had shattered my mental strength. I know this is my greatest vulnerability. I may be strong, but one blow leaves me helpless."Weak."I heard her voice again, Riana's voice. This time, her voice sounded so close, as if she was standing right in
[Seraphine's POV]"W-what? What explanation are you referring to, Cassian?" I asked him. However, all I got was Cassian walking away from me.I heard the sound of his armor's shields clinking, resonating with his quickly retreating steps."Cassian! Wait! You haven't answered my question!"Call me crazy, but right now in my mind, Cassian's change in behavior seemed more important than dealing with Riana whom we had to defeat.Seeing my Prince in action, those who were part of the war force also prepared to mount their horses for the attack. Weapons in hand, they pushed their large cannons to the center of the garden, and some of them readied their flaming arrows.I remained seated in the middle of the garden, passed by the soldiers walking past me one by one. I stared at them with a puzzled, dazed look, still not fully grasping what was actually happening.When I saw Cassian in the distance, already preparing to confront Riana with his powers, my desire to help resurged. I ignored the
[Seraphine's POV]"We will try to drive this carriage as gently as possible, so it won't hurt you, Miss."My brow furrows. I still don't understand how all the servants inside this horse-drawn carriage became aware of my pregnancy."Hey, quickly tell me. How did you all find out that I'm pregnant?" I grab one of the Omega servants sitting next to me, guarding me from the side.He looks surprised at first. When I pull at his collar, almost choking him, his eyes that were initially scared shift to calm and ordinary. Slowly, he smiles at me, contrary to his now reddened face due to breathlessness."We do not have the right to say anything about it, Miss. This is all an order directly given to us by Prince Cassian," he says very politely.I'm frustrated, not getting any answers and only becoming more confused. I push the Omega servant's body until he hits the carriage wall, causing a jolt.Instantly, the carriage driver in the front, separated by a wall and unable to see behind, stops the
[Seraphine's POV]"Oh, I see. So my mother wasn't lying, and you're the one breaking the rules instead. Is that right, Seraphine?""Wh-what did you just say?"In an instant, my body felt like it was stung by a swarm of bees, sending shocks and tremors through me, as Cassian suddenly started speaking to me."Do you want to die? I had you removed from the battlefield for an examination. I've ordered all the servants, even my mother, to take care of you, to make sure that you're in good condition when I return. And what are you doing now? Playing around? Are you intentionally harming yourself with your foolish mind?"Cassian's words sliced through my consciousness, leaving me speechless and cut off. His calm yet intimidating steps matched the weight of every word he spoke. Filled with resentment.One more step stood between us, and Cassian was now right in front of me, blocking my view completely.His cold hand roughly gripped my chin and lifted my face. He brought his face closer, so cl
[Seraphine's POV]"Your Grace, Miss Seraphine, allow me to assist you in entering the examination room."A new omega servant approached me and immediately held my hand. One thing I noticed about her, they no longer address me simply as Miss Seraphine.'They're starting to address me like a queen,' I thought. Does this mean that Cassian has decided to make me a queen in his kingdom now?"You better cooperate from today onwards, Seraphine," Cassian, who was still standing in front of me, suddenly spoke up. It made me feel the terror once again of what that particular alpha might threaten me with this time."After finding out that you've been lying to me all this time, I refuse to believe anything you say," he stated.The balance of my footing on the ground wavered after receiving a nudge from Cassian's strong shoulder that intentionally bumped into me. I remained standing here, loyal, while Cassian had already begun to walk away.Step by step, the rhythmic sound of his leather shoes acc
